A score of just over 3 is generous, but .. well, if you enjoy corny junk films, it's fine.
You even get a Scooby Doo type ending , complete with pesky kids ...

There are many like this, early trick photography, transfering a picture to a real person.. but this was so well done, and I loved how she fled when he tried to imposee the baby on her!
It is probably a very good film, but I couln't get most of the dialogue..
So, politely and respectfully, if you can catch a subtitled for the hard of hearing showing , I suggest you do so to get the benefit from this really intersting film.
Much, much better than you probably suspect
Tip - don't read too much about it first for the full slowly dawning realisation as to just what is going on.
A very decent, taught little thriller that stands up very well, much better than many other 'B' British thrillers of it's day. Deserves to be in some list somewhere .. not sure where though!
Utterly bizarre film, that should / could have been great, but suffered all sorts of changes in direction and length.. extended, cut, re-edited..
If you can find it (it cropped up on the UK 'Talking Pictures' in Jan 2021, and they are good at repeating their treasure chest of oddities), do watch.
There is something ... that doesn't quite run true.. I've got a feeling it's far to glib and cutesy, far to specifically made to go instant viral (there are others buzzing round, some claiming to be 'best short' Oscar winners - which they (OK, it - you probably know the one I mean) certainly isn't.

Wonderfully quirky mix of 'mad scientist' horror, sci -fi, political warning, with a touch of humour.Recomended

Could have been so good, a real neo noir, but slow, dull and spun out.Such a shame

Puzzled.So this so called 'Bad movie', is the highly respected original... with a raucous sound track?
Not sure this is right...

No idea why that picture is used *well, apart from the wording), as it bears no relevance to the film ..Just saying so no-one is confused.
